Happy 98th birthday, President Carter!
Your leadership, love for humankind, & dedication to global peace & justice have inspired me throughout my own career. Wishing you a wonderful day with family. 💜
.@Meeksmoss says, "The overwhelming support for #AB2094 gives me hope, because it means leaders across the political spectrum want to focus on building housing affordable to people with extremely low incomes." See her full statement: https://t.co/uNm1oqE98Y
Homelessness is the region’s biggest challenge, but we don’t hear enough about solutions that are already making an impact. Learn more about Keys to Equity and dozens more solutions like it with the new Solutions Library. @RNHSInc@ChanZuckerberg@TSFF

Today we raised the Trans Flag over City Hall in honor of Transgender History Month in San Francisco. Our Transgender community has been a beacon of resilience and strength - today and all of August we will celebrate the trans activism and culture that has shaped our city.
One of my most treasured photos - Godspeed to Nichelle Nichols, champion, warrior and tremendous actor. Her kindness and bravery lit the path for many. May she forever dwell among the stars. #RIPNichelle#Uhura
Solutions to homelessness are often less visible than homelessness itself. The fact is, the Bay Area is facing the problem and innovating to meet the dire need we all see.
See what's working with our brand new Solutions Library, just released today! https://t.co/oyDtWlEpJb
CA must preserve existing affordable homes & keep Californians in their communities as a strategy to address the affordable housing shortage. HCD just launched a Housing Preservation Portal to better track & support affordable property owners at risk of losing affordability. 1/4
One has a moral responsibility to push back against unjust laws.
Today, I am standing up for reproductive freedom and bodily autonomy in solidarity with the millions who have had their rights stripped away by inhumane policies.
Today I visited 711 Post, one of two shelters opening next week that will provide 430 more beds for people experiencing homelessness. Housing is the solution to homelessness, but shelter is critical to get people safe, off the street, and connected with resources and services.
Thanks to @FortuneMagazine for including @Meeksmoss in their roundup of CEO statements on overturning #Roe... but they ID'd All Home as a home renovation company! If that's what it takes to get more attention on the issue, so be it. https://t.co/8O7z8sCjTj
Overturning Roe v. Wade is nothing short of white supremacist patriarchy. Congress must act to enshrine reproductive rights as the law of the land. Until then, Oakland will always defend and protect women's health and our human rights.
Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.
“The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade is a devastating setback for the movement to end homelessness and poverty in America." - @Meeksmoss, Founder and CEO of All Home

27 school shootings in US this year. 0 in Japan. 0 in UK. 0 in France. 0 in Germany. 0 in Australia. American kids pleading with us to help. How do we protect our 2nd amendment & our kids at the same time? Can we raise our age limit to 21? Can we ban assault weapons? What else?
Proud to help the @warriors honor Oakland’s John Lauti, Dir. of Arab, Asian + Pacific Islander Student Achievement (APISA) program @OUSDNews for his incredible community work - and saw some old friends! #GoldBlooded
This is what we're up against. WE think "paradise" would be a community where every resident has a decent home and diverse people of all incomes can live near great schools, transit, and jobs.
Take note YIMBYs: the next meeting is June 9. https://t.co/CTK9lEVte1
